@snoophdnzwrote:Thanks for the quick answers!
But what I don't understand is why do you receive offers from sellers that state "You're receiving this offer because you showed interest in this item" ?
Are these offer messages sent by ebay instead of the seller?
Or does the seller send these offers, but they can't actually see your ID?
I think your questions cross-posted with@fashunu4eeuh's answers. Reread his/her Message #4 above.
eBay software tracks both viewers and watchers of listings. If the seller has opted to send offers to those members, and the member has not blocked that kind of communication from eBay, appropriate viewers and/or watchers will receive the offer(s). The seller does not know the members' ids or email addresses.
